THE DOUGH, PART 4: THE SOFT CRUST
The center of the cornicione (that's the thick edge of the pizza) is soft, and it's supposed to be.
When a high-hydration dough hits a very hot wood-fired oven, some of the water in it turns to steam. The steam expands fast and blows those big bubbles into the rim. The whole pizza bakes in about 90 seconds, quick enough that the inside never dries out.
If you like yours firmer, just ask. We'll leave it in a little longer.
That's our dough, start to finish. Anything you've always wanted to ask about how we make it?
